Color & Trim

Continuing Study Programs - Barcelona

The CSP in Color & Trim provides a firm grasp of colour and finishes for products and spaces.

There are plenty of design‑related sectors calling for specialists who command colours and textures: the automobile industry, interior design, architecture, sports accessories, furniture... An eye for trends and a sound knowledge of the various natural and synthetic pigments, brand strategies, materials and colour symbology are a distinctive bonus for designers.

Under Pressure is first and foremost a 3-year training programme aimed at IED network’s students where they were asked to find 100 questions in urgent need of action. The results will be exhibited during the 2019 Fuorisalone.

The course starts with a specific theoretical-cultural approach to colour before introducing a series of tools and practical exercises for the student to experiment with colour application in different formats, materials and concepts and for different purposes. Lessons include presentations, hands‑on workshops and opportunities to collaborate with acclaimed local and international figures in the sector so as to share in their experience and passion. The course ends with a final project to be submitted in a personal portfolio with colour as the centrepiece based on a personalised chromatic pallet.
